Salam!
From the way you said secondary school, I'm guessing you live in the UK and you mean your Math GCSE?
You sound just like me in Year 10 and early Year 11, constantly on my laptop. I was actually predicted an A* and I took the exam early in last November 2010 and got a B and then did the exam with everyone else in June 2011 and I got an A* for Maths alhemdulillah.
I possibly have your best solution.
There's a Maths computer program called
MathsWatch Higher GCSE
- It's flipping amazing. That's all I can say. Without it, I would've never gotten an A* and now I love Maths more than ever. (I lost interest due to my annoying Math teacher now my love for Maths has revived) I'm even doing Maths A Level this September inshAllah.
- You can try buy it online
HERE - it comes as a CD - my school gave it to everyone for free but then we had to return it at the end of our exam. Or ask your school...
HERE are some examples of what lessons are in the CD...
- If you're doing foundation, I'd suggest you change to Higher and get the Higher Tier CD. Aim high.
Trust me, it's worth it.
Take breaks on your IT stuff, and do some Maths, then go back to your IT stuff and back to Maths again. I recommend you to do at least 2-3 hours a day of Maths. And when you're done with the topics, go over them again and again; do practice questions, exam questions on the topic you just learnt... Then closer to the exam, around month or two, do past past papers of your chosen exam board (mine was Edexcel Linear) - go through past papers from 2002-2011. Non-calculator AND calculator. You'll find them on your Maths exam board website to download...
Obviously, it takes dedication so don't give up and inshAllah you'll do brilliantly! I'll do dua'a for you. And of course do as much as dua as you can for yourself! I wish you the best of luck! :shade:
they really do help
